Features
A complete verification stack
Idova covers the whole identity-verification lifecycle — capture, screening, biometrics, and decisioning — behind one API and one dashboard.
ID document verification
Capture a passport, national ID, or driver’s licence from any phone and extract the data automatically — no manual keying.
- Field extraction and document classification across 200+ countries
- ICAO-9303 machine-readable-zone checksums validated arithmetically
- Expiry, mismatch, and tampering anomalies flagged for review
AML & sanctions screening
Screen anyone against global watchlists — inside a full verification, or on its own as a standalone AML check — with a transparent, reviewable match breakdown.
- Sanctions and PEP matching against continuously updated sources
- Adverse-media screening with relevance scoring
- Standalone screening (no document or biometrics) plus ongoing monitoring that re-screens and alerts on new hits
Biometric face match & liveness
Confirm the person presenting the document is its genuine holder — and a live human.
- Face match between the selfie and the document portrait
- Passive liveness checks reject screen replays and photos-of-photos
- Confidence scores surfaced in the decision breakdown
Automated decision engine
A rule-based engine turns every signal into an instant verdict — approve, reject, or route to a human.
- Signal-by-signal rationale on every decision
- Sanctions hits auto-reject; anomalies route to manual review
- Configurable thresholds and an append-only event log
Applicant portal
A branded, mobile-first capture experience you send as a single secure link.
- No app install — works in any mobile browser
